New Zealand

New Zealand was once ranked as the fourth largest per capita missionary-sending country in the world. In the years since, this beautiful South Pacific nation has become increasingly post-Christian. Today, only 15 percent of New Zealanders attend church, and 51 percent have no religious beliefs at all. “Zed” is clean, green, egalitarian, and progressive, but it is also a country where the Church needs revitalization, and where people need the hope of Christ. Here, a small team of MTW missionaries is working with and under Grace Presbyterian Church of New Zealand, helping to grow and support the national Presbyterian denomination.
